What if the ego never truly disappears on the spiritual path — but instead learns how to hide behind enlightenment itself?
In this talk, inspired by the philosophical style and insights of Alan Watts, we explore the ego’s final and most subtle trick: the moment when spiritual certainty replaces awareness, and awakening quietly turns into identity.
Many sincere seekers begin their journey longing for freedom, peace, and liberation from the constant sense of “me.” Yet along the way, spirituality itself can become a new disguise for the ego — more refined, more convincing, and far more difficult to see.
This reflection looks deeply into how the desire to be egoless can itself become ego, how awakening turns into status, and why the belief that “I have arrived” may be the greatest illusion of all.
Rather than offering techniques or quick answers, this video invites gentle self-inquiry. Not through force, discipline, or spiritual ambition — but through clear observation, playfulness, and humility.
As Alan Watts often reminded us, freedom does not come from destroying the self, but from seeing through it.
If you are walking the spiritual path, questioning identity, or exploring non-duality, this message may resonate deeply.
